This model is not a DX type sw receiver, so it will need a good ground and at least 20-30 foot long wire antenna (preferably outdoors and high up as possible) for reasonable reception on SW. Also, back then SW stations were booming out with higher power and targeting the US more frequently. Also SW reception generaly right now ise not the greatest anyway. A ground and an antenna with as much wire as you can string up will help the best.
